The 2022 Tour de France Femmes (officially Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift) was the first edition[2] of the Tour de France Femmes, which took place from 24 to 31 July 2022.[1] It was the 16th event in the 2022 UCI Women's World Tour and followed years of campaigning by the women's professional peloton for an equivalent race to the men's Tour de France.[3] The race drew large crowds and had substantial international media coverage, and was highly praised by the public, media, teams and riders.
The race was won by Annemiek van Vleuten of Movistar Team. At the start of the race, van Vleuten suffered from a stomach infection, causing her to lose almost a minute to some of her rivals for the yellow jersey (French: maillot jaune). She was able to recover as the race reached the mountains. On stage seven, van Vleuten attacked on the first climb, before riding solo for the last 60 kilometres (37 mi) to win the stage by more than three minutes, moving into the yellow jersey in the process. She confirmed her victory by winning her second consecutive stage the next day, which finished atop La Super Planche des Belles Filles. Second place went to Demi Vollering of SD Worx, who finished second to van Vleuten on both mountain stages to consolidate her place in the general classification (GC). Vollering also took the polka-dot jersey as winner of the Queen of the Mountains (QoM) classification. Third place went to Katarzyna Niewiadoma of Canyon–SRAM, who put in a consistent performance during the first six stages and finished in the top five on both mountain stages.
Marianne Vos of Team Jumbo–Visma won the green jersey for points classification. She finished in the top five on each of the first six stages, taking two stage wins in the process, and held the yellow jersey from the second to sixth stages. Vos also won the super-combativity award. Shirin van Anrooij of Trek–Segafredo took the white jersey as the winner of the young riders classification, which was awarded to the best-placed GC rider under the age of 23. Canyon–SRAM won the team classification as the team with the lowest aggregate time among their three best-placed riders.
